Ask Proxy Offers Text Based AI Support for Women

Peacock Parent, Inc. has introduced Ask Proxy™, a text-based personal AI assistant designed to anticipate household needs. Created by founder and CEO Christine Landis, the service is positioned around carrying the mental load associated with planning ahead. Subscription plans start at $29 a month, billed annually, and the service is available in the U.S. and Canada. Ask Proxy does not require an app or AI training from users.

Addressing The Mental Load

Ask Proxy is designed to offer reminders, expert recommendations and seasonal prompts before an item reaches a calendar or to-do list. A PLOS ONE study surveyed more than 2,200 women, with 93% reporting that the weight of the load at home comes from constant thinking about tasks rather than too many tasks.

Christine Landis, Founder and CEO at Peacock Parent, Inc., said:

“Everyone is racing to build personal AI agents that do things for us at home. But who's thinking about what needs to be done in the first place? Still women,”

Proactive Household Support

The service may suggest a gift with a link one week before a birthday party, send a packing list and travel tips two days before a trip, and curate a list of summer camps three months before summer. Users can text Ask Proxy or wait for it to reach out.

Ask Proxy is subscription-based and says it does not include advertising, paid placements or sponsored recommendations. The company also states that personal information is not sold, conversations are not used to train public AI models, and the service does not scan users’ phones, computers or social media.

Christine Landis, Founder and CEO at Peacock Parent, Inc., said:

“With Ask Proxy, you're the client. Not the product.”

A Service Built Around Time

Landis created Ask Proxy for people seeking support with the planning work behind household responsibilities. The service presents a text-based option for users who want assistance without managing another platform.
